If there's some range of how long someone should be on these pills, I should be on the shorter end of these pills.
But I don't think it's fair for the surgeon to take on and understand your level of addiction.
My dad died 28 years sober.
He had many different bouts of being on opiates.
It never got him.
There wasn't a thing for him.
They were in his house.
He didn't care.
He self-administered.
He never abused them.
I don't know why.
That's what version of addict he was.
And then I was this version.
I think it's too much to ask the person that's supposed to be really great at reassembling your bones to also be somehow an addiction specialist who can evaluate.
I think that's on us addicts, to be honest.
I totally disagree.
I want to hear your opinion.
Yeah, that's the problem.
As soon as I had the pills in me, the game plan went out the window.
